YCCC extends
a HUGE thank you to everyone who supported our 2nd Annual Gala Dinner
& Auction. Through your generosity, we continue to raise awareness and much
needed funds to support the 700+ people we serve in Yolo, Glenn, Sonoma and
Placer counties.

We
would especially like to thank this year’s sponsors: CoSu Project, Clark
Pacific, Davis Food Coop, Dignity Healthy, Hospital Council of Northern and
Central California and Sierra Health Foundation.

Bob
Dunning, once again, served as Master of Ceremonies, and did a fabulous job!
His passion for mental health was evident throughout the evening and for that
we are grateful.

The evening started off with our ‘Darrell Steinberg – Change
Maker’ award presented to Dignity Health. Dignity Health has operated the
Behavior Health Unit at Woodland Memorial Hospital for over 30 years caring for
the community’s most underserved residents. YCCC and Dignity Health have been
long time partners and we were pleased to honor them this year.

Other
highlights from the evening were when our past and present clients and YCCC
volunteers shared their stories of success through our cardboard testimonies
presentation. We also heard from current Board of Directors Vice President,
Tensy Torres, who shared her story of mental health struggles and how the help
she received through YCCC’s programs have helped her achieve a successful,
independent life.

If you
missed this year’s event, don’t worry…we are already planning for 2018!!
